Thanks for hosting this podcast! The conversations are engaging, the guests are knowledgeable, and as a Christian who's struggled to believe in the truth of my worldview for most of my life, it's been encouraging for me to hear stories from people like David Bennett and Paul Kingsnorth, since they've gone through long seasons of spiritual wandering, too.

Thank you for thoughtful conversations that don’t avoid some of the more complex topics of our time. Your guests are extremely interesting, and it’s difficult not to binge listen! Your humility and respect of opinions that don’t hold to the Christian faith are a good reminder for all of us as we endeavor to love our neighbors. Robin M in Virginia

As a deconstructed Christian who has held on to the power of Jesus ministry and the presence of God as transformative and life giving, it’s been hard to find voices that are so rooted in the transcendent and not approaching conversations of faith along dogmatic or political lines. Wonderfully open and gracious hosts, wonderful guests. It’s truly refreshing and re-enchanting me in my faith

Less political and theological conservatives represented here. Fascinating Helen Lewis episode of culture wars…seemed to only dog on the conservatives utilizing Christianity to shape their public imagination. This review is coming from someone FYI who isn’t conservative lol. Still sad a big majority of imago dei’s cannot secure the privilege of being on such podcasts.

Helen said on the podcast that she is an atheist and an agnostic. That does not stop her however, from explaining to Christians how to interpret the teachings of Christ. Wow!

Thoughtful podcast

For tackling the big questions in life with hope and positivity in Christ!

This podcast has been my luckiest find in quite some time. I love how Justin and Belle ask deep, well thought questions that make excellent connections to faith. There is a longing in me for a more enchanted faith… it’s a word that keeps coming up and these conversations point me to hope which is a looking backwards in order to look forward and to love which is a basking in this present moment in the presence of a good and beautiful God. I look forward to next season

I first listened to Justin on the “Ask N.T. Wright Anything” podcast, which I loved. I have learned so much from Re-Enchanting and I appreciate the approach Justin and Belle take with each guest. Whether Christian or not, each interview is conducted with dignity, careful listening, and a delightful curiosity. What a beautiful example of dialogue. I am eager for season 2!

We live in a disenchanted world. Materialism / naturalism is the ruling presupposition in most modern societies. There have been quite a few shows that have challenged the secularist worldview, but I think precious few that are attempting to reestablish a transcendent, enchanted worldview. The latter is what Re-enchanted is all about. It’s not a defense, nor an attack. The show is more of an invitation to see the world through a new pair of lenses (even if they are set within old frames). I find this show incredibly refreshing. I look forward to seeing how it develops as a valuable voice in modern discussions about worldviews, human flourishing, and the future.

Bless you all who make this podcast. Re-enchant the world. Make the naked shingles of the world shine in God’s light. The kingdom is built, insofar as we are hands and feet it is made. Your title touches the deep foundations into the bedrock of the modern on which we can restart again. Built it. I already see you doing so. Thank you.

4 episodes into this new podcast, and I’m ready for 4 more. Re-Enchanting is a very appropriate title and the hosts are both credible and talented. It’s now in my “favorites”!

Having benefitted from Justin’s other work, I was curious about the new program. The idea that the world needs to be re-enchanted with the Gospel Message caught my attention, and the opening episode laid it out very well. I look forward to the wide scope of guests they have planned and the perspectives they will bring to this discussion.
